That is strange if bikely is also based on Google map then it should cope with pedestrians. After all you can get Google Maps to 
have the walking option when you ask it to give you specific route.

Interesting. I tried to put a route into Bikely the other 
day using the Goodwill Bridge and it couldn't cope - dumped the route onto the 
roads, via the Captain Cook Bridge. So my guess is Bikely won't recognise 
bikeways - it's road-based after all. There might be similar systems for MTB 
use.
 
Anyone know if I'm right or wrong?

Hi 
all,

Being an RACQ member, I get access to a website called 
mydrive.com.au. Actually all you get is 
access to Google Map with overlays 
for things like schools and red light cameras. You can click 
on things like 
traffic jam but they don't work :-), at least I couldn't see the road works 
outside
Energex's office :-(. I was wondering this might be a good idea for 
something like bikely. 
I guess they must work about some coordinate overlay. 
We could put things like entry points
to bike paths. Construction work on 
bike paths. Or where there is road work (don't you some
time wish you were 
riding a MTB and not a roadie :-). 

What do you think.
